        A book by Ralph E. Marshall titled DESCENDANTS OF THOMAS MARSHALL BEDFORD CO., VA PLUS HIX-OWEN-NICHOLSON & RELATED FAMILES (Self Published, September 1986). From the information in this book, it appears that our Samuel Marshall was a son of Thomas Marshall, possibly born in Wales. It was in searching for more information about Thomas Marshall that I came across your tree.
    
        This book suggests an different lineage for Thomas Marshall, the father of my Samuel (and of his brother Alexander Marshall), as follows: "Alexander Marshall, son of the foregoing (Thomas Marshall, a nativeof Wales) and father of the subject (Junius S. Marshall), was born inMaryland, March 24, 1790. He went with his parents to Virginia when quite young, remaining in that state until about the 1818, at which time he immigrated to Kentucky and located in Hardinsburg, where he engaged in the shoe-making and grocery business. After a few years spent inthe town he moved about one mile and a half south to the place where subject (Junius) now lives, on which farm he located, and on which hisdeath occurred January 6, 1867." Ralph Marshall copied this from an article discovered in the summer of 1980 in the Kansas City, Missouri Public Library from the "History of Kentucky, Illustrated 1887 pps. 1072-1073).
